Ryan

This house truly feels like a little slice of paradise. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by nature. In the morning, I was already sitting on the terrace at 5 a.m., in complete peace and quiet, birdwatching as the birds came almost all the way into the living room. Other animals also made an appearance; it felt like we were allowed to be part of the jungle for a while. Everything was just as it should be: the sounds, the movement, even the insects. It made the experience complete and real. The house itself is beautiful, cozy, and has everything you need. You can feel that care and attention have gone into it. The hostess was very warm and provided clear explanations, which immediately made us feel at ease upon arrival. We absolutely love this place and the area. This is one of those places where you don’t just stay, but you really experience something. We will definitely be back here.

Ryan’s place is everything you need for a few days in beautiful surroundings full of wildlife, and I could easily spend months there! It is a a piece of heaven indeed! Ryan was always responsive, and made our stay in the area much better with his helpful advise and the excellent local wildlife guide he recommended!

This off the beaten path (but still accessible) house was a perfect perch in the jungle for our family of 4. We were very comfortable in the beds, the house was spacious, the care takers on site were lovely, and the canopy views from the deck were the best part! The serene setting helped us settle in after long travel days and we drop right in to the heart of the forest. Highly recommend. Must have 4 wheel drive.

The accommodation is spacious and very clean and atypical: totally open to the lush nature that surrounds it (mosquito nets at the openings). At the height of the trees we saw capuchins and saïmiris in the morning and also a couple of toucans and several red macaws. In the evening you should not be afraid of insects! But the sounds of the forest lull us all night... total immersion in the tropical forest! We were able to cook and the bathrooms were perfect. Ana and her husband were very welcoming, knew how to remain discreet and advised us on the best beaches: the colibri beach is a real paradise! Finally, Ana's garden is full of exotic flowers and she will not hesitate to let you taste specialties!! Thank you for having us!

What spotless and accurate to the photos and description ..great for a big group . Nature all around., ensure you have a 4x4 as road can be challenging. Ryan recommended a local tour guide: John Jairo very passionated and proud tico who want you to see it all to make your stay unforgettable. GRACIAS and hopefully we can see you all again,

The views and nature around this property were awesome. We saw toucans (including the fiery billed aracaris) hopping around and flying close by and several pairs of scarlet macaws flying passed every day. The sounds of the forest were a revelation and added so much to our experience. If you go I'd recommend just hanging out for as much time you can on the balcony taking in the views and sounds. Bring a pair of binoculars and see if you can match the different calls to the various animals. This is a wonderful place if you want a few slow days and to just take it all in.

If you want to unwind in the jungle, this is it. The house is beautifully built and you have an amazing view of untouched jungle. This is off the grid in a good way. We loved Ana and Juan, the caretakers. My friends stayed here before and mentioned that Ana cooked for them and taught them, too. When I told her I was interested in learning some dishes, I went to the grocery store with her and then she taught me a new Costa Rican dish each night as she cooked dinner for my family. It was so fun. Ryan was great to communicate with—gave great recommendations for things to do in the area. I loved the sounds of the jungle all the time. There is no TV which I liked. My husband and four kids played games at night instead. We also had every beach to ourselves. We didn’t see any other tourists except at the supermarket and down near matapalo. All the beaches were empty with just my family all day. What a great experience.

Very good place to disconnect!

Beautiful remote home in Osa. Caretaker Ana was very hospitable and kind and cooks a great breakfast.

This is truly an incredible place to stay. The design of the house, view, and overall atmosphere is amazing. Would highly recommend staying here!

The house is perfect for a stay in the jungle with a breathtaking view

We arrived at this special place looking for a place to stay to go to Corcovado Park. We found a beautiful view of the jungle. It makes you feel like you're in a hidden part of the world. The house is impeccable, with spacious rooms. A beautiful wooden floor. It has everything you need for cooking. I really appreciated that they recycled and composted. All cotton linens.

If you are looking for a very nice place to stay, with great views and a little bit outside of Puerto Jimenez, just stop looking and book this place. It's super clean, unique and modern. The on-property caretakers are great people and willing to help if you need something. Should I ever visit this area of Costa Rica again, I would stay here without hesitation.

Ryan was very kind, communicated with us constantly, and gave us good recommendations (for example, we did a tour of PN Corcovado with Eric, he told us places to eat and buy food in Puerto Jimenez - 20 minutes by car). The caretakers Ana and Juan were helpful at all times. It helped us a lot to be able to wash clothes at a reasonable price. The place is beautiful, the house is located in the middle of the forest where you can see beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The house is well-equipped and the facilities are new, with good ventilation. We'll be back for sure.

Staying at Ryan’s house was a highlight of our trip. The view is stunning. We loved seeing so much wildlife from the balcony. Waking up to the rainforest was an incredible experience. The house was very clean, it had all the amenities listed, the internet worked great, the kitchen was well stocked, there was storage for our belongings, and it was a family friendly home. Ryan was attentive, friendly, and provided great details to us ahead of time so we knew what to expect. He also gave us helpful suggestions of things to do in the area. He recommended a guide, Jairo, for a visit to Corcovado National Park and we are so grateful for that because Jairo was fantastic. The housekeepers, Ana and Juan, were wonderful! We used the option of paying Ana to cook for us and it was absolutely worth it! She is a fantastic cook and is so fun to talk with and learn from. We wish we had booked a longer stay and hope to be back soon!
